...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....

Afghanistan Population

Compare with Europe's or America's (w/o massive immigration) population stats. Darwin might say that they are better adapted to the current environment than the First World.

#1  Islam is killing itself. The century is only 16 years in and we have ...is it another whole 84 more years to go until the close of this century?

And Islam will be busy busy busy killing Moslems generally, and a few here and there in other places, but the majority of people Moslems DO kill are other Moslems? What IS the total of all the wars in the world right now concerning Moslems being involved ? Someone should notice and count the statistical number of suicides Islam pursues avidly, one might even say with Religious ZEAL.
Moslems apparently LIKE to kill OTHER Moslems...even more than anyone else.

Attrition-ally speaking at some point over the coming decades Moslems are going to run out of other Moslems TO kill. Or am I wrong. Suicide for Islam? All Islam seems to be doing is thrashing around while it.... dies. Do you suppose it is because deep down Islam realizes it IS dying and wants to die because it realizes it is a religion with no place to really GO anymore ...except into the grave? A pointless and meaningless Religion with nothing to offer the world and itself.
And it WANTS to die.
